Spending Limits
How the Dynamoi daily spending limit works: a per-artist cap across all active campaigns, how total budgets count, budget minimums, and what to do when you reach the limit.
Each artist has a daily spending limit, $100/day as standard, that applies to all of the artist's active campaigns together, not to each campaign. A daily budget counts at its daily amount; a total budget counts at its average per day over the flight. A launch, resume, or budget increase that would go over the limit is refused.
The limit applies to Smart Campaigns and YouTube campaigns alike.
How the limit is counted
| Campaign | Counts toward the limit as |
|---|---|
| Daily budget | The daily budget |
| Total budget | The total divided by the days in the flight |
| Paused, ended, or archived | Nothing; resuming counts it again |
Example with the standard limit: an artist running one campaign at $10/day can still add other budgets up to the remaining amount. The edit dialog shows that remaining room as its Max.

Support can set a different limit for an artist. If an artist's limit is set to zero, new or higher budgets show Daily spending limit is set to $0. Contact support to adjust.
Budget minimums
| Rule | Smart Campaign | YouTube campaign |
|---|---|---|
| Daily minimum | $10/day | $10/day |
| Total minimum | $50 | $75 |
| Shortest flight | 5 days, including today | 5 days, including today |
Total budgets need an end date and at least the daily minimum for each day of the flight. Amounts are whole numbers. Artists billed in another currency see fixed local amounts instead of these.
Limits and funding
The spending limit caps how much budget can run each day. How that budget is paid, from credit, campaign funds, or the saved payment method, is covered in How Campaign Funding Works. Adding campaign funds does not raise the limit.
